I have been having trouble with my website which is built with UTF-8
to allow both english and Chinese.  I am trying to develop a feed for
my website similar to the froogle feed, where we can maintain our
database on CSV file and upload, replace or add to the existng.  The
problem is, I would enter chinese in the CSV file, and it would look
perfectly fine.  However, when I upload the CSV file to my website, it
would come out as "????"

The other way around, when I enter chinese directly in to my site
through front end, everything is fine.  However, when I export my
chinese listings out, it also shows as "????" in my newly exported CSV
file.

If I turn my browser encoding to chinese-big-5(non-unicode), than it
would work.  however, since rest of my site is built with UTF-8, it is
not consistant.

I have tried uploading the XLS version which supports "Arial Unicode
font", but that doesnt work either.

I REALLY NEED HELP!! THANK YOU
